I always see girls and I'm like "I totally wish I was her." I want to be beautiful and smart and have a good personality, I don't though. I'm not like...hideous. I'm like 5'1, 100lbs, I have some acne but not as much as I used to.

I just don't know what to do. At my lowest point I was completely obsessed with this girl. I started wearing my hair like hers, talking and acting like her. This was a couple of years ago, but I still get that "I wish I was her..."

I don't know what to do. How can I be happy with me?

i have extremely low self-esteem and i hate it, but i can't seem to change it very easily. it usually makes me hate myself because i'll accidently let an LSE comment slip out around my boyfriend and he gets upset about it and then i feel terrible because i unintentionally made him feel bad.

Hang out  with people who like you for who you are.  
 

 

 I do though. My boyfriend loves me more than anything and doesn't even care about other girls. I have a few friends and they all really like me, personality included.


Why whine then? It's hard to find people who DO like you for who you are. Don't take them for granted.


I'm not whining. Shut the fuck up.

Then why care about looks?
Looks mean shit.
Be happy for who you are.

I don't know. I feel inadequate.

Lol wow, I'm 5"1' and 101 pounds with some acne going away! I know I look horrible in that pic from my IB a year ago but I look a lot better now. I used to have horrible self-confidence until I started ignoring what other people thought or said about me, good or bad, started dressing nicer and taking better care of myself. Pampering goes a long way in self-confidence, especially in Girl world, trust me, i've been there, done that.

You just gotta realize what's best for you. You can copy someone else all the time because their look and what they do may not be what looks good for you. That just makes it worse.
